Testimonals
In early 2023, I was suddenly and unfairly dismissed by my employer after over a decade of dedicated work. I received no compensation, and my actual working hours—around 1,500 for the year—were severely underreported. When I asked for my ROE (Record of Employment), he refused. During one heated exchange, he even pushed me. To make things worse, he later tried to accuse me of poor performance.
That period was one of the darkest in my life. I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t eat, and lived under constant worry and fear. With four children to raise and aging parents to care for, we couldn’t afford expensive legal fees. My husband tried calling various legal services, but most required hundreds of dollars just for a consultation.
Thank God, a friend told us about CCM’s Legal Aid Centre in Toronto. We reached out, and by God’s grace, Lawyer Chan took our case. She worked tirelessly to help us—organizing documents, sending formal letters, and updating us regularly. Even though my employer seemed indifferent and tried to delay the process, Lawyer Chan stood by us for over a year, never giving up.
Eventually, we were able to recover part of the compensation we rightfully deserved. I finally felt a sense of relief. I’ve now moved on to a new workplace, and life is slowly getting back on track. I’m truly grateful to the Lord and to the CCM Legal Aid team. May God continue to use you to bless many more people in need!

Dear Teresa,
Life is not easy. The world is a chaotic, and difficult place. There is a lot of suffering, and hardship.
But, I want to thank you, and despite the difficulties, and hardships in this world, it’s good to see that not everything is dark, and negative in this world.
It’s good to see, that there is a beautiful, bright, and positive hope in this world, and that there are people like yourself, who are trying to help the less fortunate, and those who are suffering.
It’s people like yourself, by helping the less fortunate, you let them know, that despite their current hardships, and difficulties they are enduring, you provide them a “ray of hope”, and that there is always faith, hope, and healing, despite their current hardships.
So, thank you, for helping me, and other people, out of the kindness of your heart, and for letting us know, that despite our current hardships in life, that there is always hope, faith, and unconditional love in this world.

我在2023年夏天經歷一場法律糾紛，曾經找過其他律師，由於自己對法律的無知，以及對律師的盲目與過分依賴，最後導致自己處於非常緊迫與被動之中，在頂著極大壓力與無盡焦慮的不眠之夜，感謝主，在主的帶領下我在Google上看到了中信法律援助中心，一行「以基督信仰主導的法律援助服務」字幕讓我突然感覺像是黑夜中看到了一線曙光，我抱著試試的態度在網站上留下我的基本信息，沒想到隔天上班就接到Teresa 律師的電話，我非常激動，當我第一次與Teresa律師見面後，我坐在車上淚流不止，我感覺我身上的擔子減輕了一半，不是因為他們給了我什麼承諾，也不是盲目認為他們會幫我扭轉局面，而是對於他們用自己的專業來傳播基督的福音的這份工作的一種無比的信任與安心，那時的我心裡是踏實的，無論最終的結果如何。
最後在Teresa律師與蔡永聰律師的努力與幫助下，為我爭取到了最大化利益的庭外和解。為此再次感謝主的恩典與憐憫，感謝Teresa姊與蔡律師的鼎力幫助！
